Dessert Chain vs Food Fantasy
Dessert Chain
Dessert Chain is a very addictive and challenging time management game featuring popular desserts, including a particular dish that's very popular in the South-East Asian region. Developed by Indonesia-based games company, TouchTen, Dessert Chain features the somewhat frantic gameplay that you love in most time management game while adding in its unique charm by weaving its local culture into the game's gameplay. When it comes to upgrades, the game uses a system that resembles Cooking Fever, where players will need to use "premium currency" (also gems) to unlock higher level upgrades. And yet, interestingly, players can also collect these gems for free from each of the restaurants they have unlocked in the game.With so many levels to complete and 3 stars each to earn (to fulfill the completionist in you), Dessert Chain is one in many of Touchten's Chain game franchise. Fans of time management games will love playing this game, and from our own positive experience of Dessert Chain, we can confidently say that we recommend this game too!
Food Fantasy
Food Fantasy is a unique JRPG where all the characters in the game are essentially personified food. For instance, "red wine" is personified into a suave young man who dressed like a Victorian vampire, while "hotdog" is depicted as a tall and lanky young man who has a passion for painting (naturally, ketchup is his signature paint). This concept in its own is immensely intriguing and, of course, very unique, but does the game holds up well when it comes to its gameplay?Well, the story behind the whole game can feel a tad bit forced, and even confusing for some. Apparently, fallen angels have invaded the world and only food souls, a.k.a. the food characters, are able to help defeat them. Combat is pretty barebones, but it's still decent for a mobile RPG. The game even lets you manage your own restaurant where you'll get to prepare and serve food to your customers, much like in a cafe-themed time management game.
Food Fantasy is indeed a very intriguing game, all thanks to its unique perspective on food. It's also really nice that the game incorporates some aspects of a restaurant management game, which completely fits the overall theme, into its gameplay, giving players something else to enjoy aside from all the fighting in a standard RPG.
